    Rear Window Visor (Preventing Water Funneling)

    I see Todd's visor is slightly lower in the middle, a very common issue from the Trac's I've seen around here (and my own!). If your installing one I would suggest to try your best to keep it level or even slightly raised in the middle. Who knows, it might even "droop" a little after...

    Factory sub - again

    Does an aftermarket head unit sending 12V to the 5V factory sub do any harm to the sub? Does 12V rather than 5V affect the sound quality? Thanks in advance.

    factory sub

    Does 12v harm the subwoofer in any way? I've had the pop for over 2 years now.

    factory sub

    I have a Sony aftermarket radio and the turn on pop. Does the pop cause any harm to the sub? Does the sub perform as it should when powered by 12v rather than 5v? Other than the pop scaring the passengers, everything seems to operate as it should.

    CarSeat Rings

    Our carseat top strap broke the insides of the headrest - you can hear all the plastic pieces rattle around inside it now. I didn't mess with it for very long but could not figure out how to remove the headrest.

    spark knock only when A/C is on

    I am certain it's not the compressor clicking, (I can hear that loud and clear also!) I don't know what the belt tensioner rattle would sound like. The noise only happens when driving with the AC on - and when the AC compressor is "engaged", so the belt tensioner rattle idea is worth...

    spark knock only when A/C is on

    The other day we noticed that the engine in our stock '04 ST has a spark knock, but only when the A/C is on. We noticed this last year too. Any ideas what the problem might be? We always use 87 octane gas. Thanks.

    Scuba Diving/ Florida Keys

    http://www.parmersplace.com/ Not a flashy hotel at all, just a nice place to sleep. Who spends much time AT the hotel when your in the Keys anyway? Bahia Honda and Looe Key are my favorite destinations. oh, and Fort Jefferson is a must if you've got the time.

    auto door locks

    Thanks for the advise, however I rather like the auto lock (most of the time).

    auto door locks

    Does this bug anyone else? You have a passenger to pick up that is standing outside the garage. You move the trac only a few feet in reverse. You put the Trac in park, you know to be safe while a passenger gets in. After putting the Trac in park, you let off the brake pedal, the Trac rolls...

    Tail gater counter measures

    Simple: wash the windshield off - the spray will get on their windshield and they will back off.

    stereo system

    http://oem-auto-accessory.com/factory_ford_radios.html Maybe you can get one that plays mp3 CD's - way better than a CD changer.

    Amber turn signal

    Anyone else wish that all turn signals were amber? Seems like more and more vehicles have just the red turn signals, and I can't see the flashing red nearly as well.

    Best Ford Svd Dept in Atlanta?

    Mall of GA Ford damaged my Ranger a few years ago, looks like they placed parts or tools on the hood by the windshiled wiper area. I brought to their attention and OF COURSE they claim the deep scratches were already there. I believe the Ranger suffered a couple of door dings as well. Also, it...
